Doc Text:	Rear includes backup archive in the rescue CD ISO image Previously, Relax-and-Recover (ReaR) did not include the backup archive in the rescue CD ISO image when run on the IBM Power Systems architecture. As a consequence, rescue CDs could not be used for restoring the system when the internal backup method was used. This update adds the backup archive into the rescue CD ISO image. As a result, rescue CDs can now be used to restore the system with internal backup method.	Story Points:	---

Description Renaud Métrich 2018-04-24 12:23:13 UTC

Description of problem:

It appears that there is no code in /usr/share/rear/output/ISO/Linux-ppc64le/ ana /usr/share/rear/output/ISO/Linux-ppc64/ to include the backup in the ISO, when using the following configuration:

OUTPUT=ISO
OUTPUT_URL=file:///home/backup/
BACKUP=NETFS
BACKUP_URL=iso:///OS

Also, the code used to split DVDs is not present.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rear-2.00


How reproducible:

Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure rear as shown above
2. Create backup: "rear mkbackup"
3. Check resulting ISO

Actual results:

No OS/backup.tar.gz file in the ISO


Additional info:

The code has been integrated into rear-2.2
